Zheng Chenggong was busy moving the government, and Zheng Tai, who was in Nanyang, encountered a big storm when he went to East Timor, and as a result, he lost his way in the sea for a while.

It took several days to regain direction, and seeing that there was not enough food and fresh water, Zheng Tai ordered the ship to sail to the nearest port, Batavia.

In the second year of Yongli, two days after Zheng Tai came to Batavia in the South Seas, he heard the news that Franc was about to attack, and Zheng Tai was so frightened that he even left the merchant ship and hurriedly ran back to report.

When he came to Batavia again this time, Zheng Tai came with sixty warships.

In the early morning, the fog cleared.

The huge fleet was spotted from a distance by the lookout of the port of Batavia, who hurriedly sounded the alarm.

As the crisp bell rang, the whole of Batavia suddenly became a mess.

Nearly 700 soldiers hurried to the battery, lifted the covering canvas, placed the artillery, and aimed it at the battleship at sea.

Captain Robin on duty. Giovanni hurried into the governor's palace and shouted, "Oh no, my lord. Enemy ships are coming! ”

Anthony van Diemen, the governor of the Dutch East India Company, who was still eating breakfast elegantly, immediately threw down the silver spoon in his hand, and stood up angrily and shouted: "Are those dog mongrels in England going to do it?" ”

Giovanni shouted anxiously: "No, it is the Zheng family fleet of the Ming Dynasty that is coming!" ”

"What? The Zheng family's fleet is coming? "Anthony was a little puzzled when he heard it, it didn't mean that the Ming Dynasty was resisting the invasion of the Tatars in the north, how dare the Zheng family offend the Dutch Empire at this time."

Anthony hurried to the balcony of the Doge's Palace, raised the telescope handed by his servant and looked out to sea.

I saw that there were 3 large warships, 12 medium-sized warships, and countless small warships flying the familiar Zhengjia flag.

Anthony frowned, there were many battleships coming, but none of those guns had yet been pushed out of the muzzle. It doesn't look like it's going to invade Batavia.

Anthony Van Diemen looked at Robin fiercely. Giovanni scolded: "You go and get in touch with them and ask them what they want to do in Batavia?" ”

"Yes, Lord Governor!" Robin. Giovanni replied.

Giovanni took a few soldiers in a dinghy and sailed to the Zheng fleet under a white flag.

Seeing that the other party was just coming in a small boat, and it was also waving a white flag. Zheng Tai asked a few guards to bring those people up.

Soon the rope ladder was lowered, Giovanni climbed up, saw Zheng Tai standing in the front, hurriedly took off his hat, his right hand was close to his chest, his upper body leaned forward 15 degrees, and shouted tremblingly: "This gentleman! My commander asked me to ask, what are you here for with so many warships? “

Zheng Taidao: "We are chasing the defeated army of the Buddha Wolf Machine, and now we want to enter the port to replenish some food and fresh water!" ”

Pursue the Buddha Wolf Machine!

Giovanni was stunned for a moment. He had lived in Nanyang for seven or eight years, and in his dealings with Chinese merchants, he knew that Francois meant Portugal.

Giovanni also knew that in order to maintain its trade routes in China, Portugal almost attacked the Zheng family with all its might.

Now it seems that Portugal is defeated, and now it seems that Portugal is completely lost.

It seemed that such an important matter was to return to the Viceroy as soon as possible, to see if he could take the colony of Brazil from him while Portugal was in great condition.

Giovanni hurriedly said: "My lord, please wait a while, don't enter the port yet!" ”

"Why?" Zheng Tai was stunned for a while. He looked angry: "You don't have the right to ask us like this, we just want to enter the port normally to replenish ......"

Jung Tae has something else to say. But was interrupted by Giovanni: "This gentleman. Your fleet is too big, and it's easy to be misled to enter the harbor like this! So for everyone's safety, please wait a moment and let me go back and tell the Governor!" ”

Zheng Tai's face twitched: "I can understand that this is a threat?" ”

"No, no, no, it's just a well-intentioned exhortation. Mr. If you insist on entering the port like this, you will probably be warned by the battery. In short, there are bound to be some very serious accidents."

Zheng Tai looked at the expressionless Giovanni, and then at the battery in the distance, and at the battleships gathered in Yang Harbor.

Zheng Tai thought about it and made a decision: "Please tell your chief, we can wait for a while." But hurry up and tell your sir, if there is no reply within an hour, we will force our way into the port!" ”

Giovanni heard the rush and said, "I will, this gentleman." I'll go back and tell you, sir! ”

When Giovanni disembarked, the sailors on the boat immediately got busy, and the Dutch boat moved away from the Zhengzheng fleet as fast as it could, and returned to port.

As soon as Giovanni disembarked, he hurried to the governor's palace and conveyed Zheng Tai's request to Anthony. "Lord Governor, they have come to hunt down the Portuguese ships, and now they are entering the harbor for supplies!"

Hunt down the Portuguese ships!

Anthony was also stunned when he heard the news that Giovanni had brought back.

Inner thoughts; It seems that Portugal has been defeated, and even this scale has not been able to win against the Zheng family, and it seems that the power of the Zheng family will be reassessed!

Looking at Giovanni, who was anxiously waiting in front of him, Anthony said, "What else did the people of the Zheng family say?" ”

Giovanni hurriedly replied, "Then the Zheng family said that if he didn't reply within an hour, he would force himself in!" ”

Anthony was frightened when he heard this, and hurriedly said, "You go and tell them immediately." I only allowed them to send one ship into the port for supplies, and it was absolutely impossible to get into the port all of them. Send a few warships to supervise, but tell the sailors that these are extraordinary times and there is no need to take the initiative to provoke. If the Zheng family dares to offend, resolutely fight back! ”

……

Giovanni looked at Zheng Tai and said calmly, "Sir, I have the honor to convey to you the message of Governor Anthony. We've allowed you to come in one ship and buy supplies, but it's impossible to get all of them! ”

Zheng Tai heard it and said, "With a boat, we can't meet the replenishment of supplies. Our warships are configured exactly according to the quota, and it would be too slow to allow only one ship, and more than 2,000 people need ten ships! ”

As soon as Giovanni heard this, he felt that the other party had nothing to do, but because of the governor's instructions not to take the initiative to provoke, he said patiently: "Then come in two at a time and transport them away five times." ”

Zheng Tai thought that he still had a task on his body, and it was inconvenient to cause more trouble, so he agreed: "Okay, then our army will send two ships into the port." Please be guided! ”

Giovanni replied, "Yes, we will have a special boat in the port to guide you into the port!" Please keep a safe speed and distance, and do not show the muzzle of the gun before entering the port. ”

Under Zheng Tai's command, a lock ship and a fortune ship sailed out of the fleet, and slowly entered Batavia under the guidance of the small boat that Giovanni was riding. (To be continued.) )
